Christ is Deeper Still

By: Johnny Coggin

If you want to read hard-hitting, convicting, glorious biblical truth (and you like it in very short bursts!), you need to check out (and subscribe to) Nashville pastor Ray Ortlund's blog, Christ is Deeper Still.

Here is this morning's shocking commentary on Galatians 3:13:

“To the Jews, this was absolute blasphemy: a cursed Messiah on a cursed cross. No wonder the cross was such a stumbling block to them! To put it in the most shocking and yet perhaps the most accurate way, the apostolic message was about a God-damned Messiah.”

Philip Graham Ryken, Galatians (Phillipsburg, 2005), page 115.
